East Brunswick's Crystal Springs Is Raising Some Fees In 2026: What You Need To Know

EAST BRUNSWICK, NJ — Most families with a Crystal Springs Water Park season pass will pay the same price this summer as last year. But a few fees are going up under a new schedule the township council adopted at its Tuesday meeting.

The biggest change for families is the two-person household pass. Residents will now pay $380, up $30 from last year's $350. Non-residents will pay $580, up $20 from $560. The weekday-only version of that pass rises even more — $50 more for residents, bringing it to $325, and $20 more for non-residents, now $480.

The family add-on pass, which lets a caregiver or guest who lives at the same address come along on an existing season pass, also goes up — from $115 to $150 for everyone.

The big passes are staying put, though. A full family season pass is still $470 for residents and $785 for non-residents. Individual passes hold at $235 for residents and $350 for non-residents. Senior passes also stay the same at $200 for residents and $310 for non-residents.

Day admission prices are not changing either. Residents pay $21 on weekdays and $26 on weekends and holidays. Non-residents pay $31 and $36.

Swim team fees are going up a bit. Registration rises $10 for both residents and non-residents, bringing it to $250 and $300 respectively. The tryout fee for new swimmers goes from $10 to $15. Swim lesson prices are not changing — still $155 for residents and $180 for non-residents for eight sessions.

The annual Drool in the Pool event, which lets residents bring their dogs to the water park, will cost more this year. Dog admission goes from $21 to $25 and the fee for spectators goes from $16 to $20.

Day campers will also see small increases. The East Brunswick Day Camp pool rate goes from $12 to $13 per person, and Daisy Summer Camp rises from $6 to $8.
